Hands down birds. Some of them can be nice, but they crap everywhere, and are very temperamental especially to the opposite gender. We birdsat another cockatoo that just straight attacked everyone in the house, so we just shut it in the cage for the entire week until her owner picked her up. We didn't want to do that, but the thing kept flying towards our faces and kept biting us.

Sad too. It was brought up in a bad home so it wasn't entirely its fault, but at the same time, we had one of them ourselves and it could flip the switch at a moments notice. The one I feel really bad for is the owner. She isn't going to be able to date with that menace in her house as its extremely protective of her... and also attacks her, but she's got the "I can't give it away after its already been given away once" bug.

Yeah birds is a really big category. I only have experience with budgies and cockatiels and they're too small and friendly to hurt anyone. But you could have one of those giant parrots or something with claws designed for rending flesh and beaks designed for eating meat. Scary, definitely don't want something like that. My little guys can barely break a seed open.
